Wombwell Coke & B P Co - Found Wincobank, Sheffield 2019

Wombwell Main Colliery Brickworks, Wombwell, Barnsley.

 

Wombwell Main Colliery was established by The Wombwell Main Co. in 1865 and became the property of the National Coal Board when it was nationalised in 1947.

The associated brickworks seems to have been operated by The Wombwell Main Co. and The Wombwell Coke & Bituminous Products Co. prior to nationalisation and by the National Coal Board and the Midland Brick Co. (on behalf of the NCB) after nationalisation,.
